Color Challenge Layout #3

Here's another layout I did thanks to Shimelle. This challenge was to use the color wheel and color theory to do a layout. Again, here is Shimelle's post for more information.

And here's my digital layout using complimentary colors.

Supplies: Template - Sketch Collection #26 by Jen Caputo; Papers - Art Greco Mini Kit by The Queen of Quirk; Fonts - Jefferson and Georgia

Using the color wheel is something that I don't normally do. So it was a nice change to start with colors in mind, then find supplies that work. I did have fun and I think that I will do more layouts using the wheel.

Color Challenge Layout #2

Today there is more color fun from Shimelle.
Check out this post to join in on this challenge. That post explains the challenge a lot better than I can.

I had a lot of fun spinning the color wheel at this web site.
Here's the color combo that I decided to use as the basis for my layout.


And here's my layout for today. The scan is a little washed out. It is a little brighter in real life. And it looks crooked, but it's not.


Supplies: Cardstock - American Crafts; Die cut paper - KI Memories; Letter Stickers - American Crafts and Making Memories; White pen - Ranger Inkssentials

That makes 2 layouts I've made this month. I hope I can keep it up for all of June.

A Month of Color thanks to Shimelle.


Go check out www.shimelle.com and join Shimelle for a month of color.


I was inspired to do this digital page for today's challenge.

Supplies: Papers - Playtime (retired) by Meredith Fenwick; Template - Scrap Canvas 10 by The Queen of Quirk
Rainbow Border - Kate Teague; Fonts - Diesel and MF Willy Nilly (retired)

I've been scrapping a lot with paper lately. And it felt good to do a digital page. I can't wait to play with color all month long.
